Skin care - Homemade face mask

Hello girls, Today I come here to talk about a topic that interests many of us women.With the everyday rush of life, not always we have time to go to the salon, to a dermatologist, or even to devote more time to caring for our skin. So many women and I end up choosing homemade recipes that are quick and can be used at any time. But be careful, because not everything we see out really works. I went to see the dermatologist and she explained what is a myth and what is true. And gave some miraculous recipes, that can help you in skin care, no contraindications. I hope you like it.

Cucumber (for dark circles): Cucumber placed in the eyes is usually cold, which causes a vasoconstriction and therefore, it gives the impression that improves dark circles, but it is only temporary, because in fact what help is contacted with the cold.

Chamomile tea (for dark circles): The iced tea also helps temporarily due to the calming effect of the local cooling.

Honey with sugar (for exfoliation): The mixture helps make the skin softer because it removes the most superficial layer of the skin. It may be used once a week.

Egg (to hydrate): May cause a momentary lifting effect, giving a sense of the skin stretch and improves the pores, but the effect does not last.

Milk (to lighten): It is a myth. The milk does not cause skin whitening.
